I am lost here. You say you are mixing at 1oz per gallon but spraying at .5 gal per K. So that means you are only using 1/2oz of chemical per K and or wondering why it is not doing much. I beleive you better double check your calculations, because instead of mixing hot I think you are mixing way too week.

OK
Let's look at chart #3 [I ass/u/me that you are using a pressurized sprayer with cool season grass listed in chart]
The chart is saying to use 1oz of product every 250sq ft. So it will take 4oz of weed killer to cover 1000sq ft.
If you calibrated your sprayer and it is putting out 1/2 gal per 1000sq ft then you will need 4oz of product in 1/2gal of water in the sprayer to cover 1000sq ft.
If you have a 2gal sprayer and filled it with water you would need to put in 16oz of weed killer and could spray 4000sq ft.
